Former Arizona Cardinals WR Christian Kirk said he was going through it mentally in the desert.
ARIZONA -- It's been years since Christian Kirk has suited up for the Arizona Cardinals - though his struggles with the organization still remain with the current Jacksonville Jaguars receiver to this day.
The Cardinals - if you need your memory jogged - weren't good. Or close to it during Kirk's beginning tenure with Arizona.Between bad health and a case of the drops that couldn't seem to escape him, fans at State Farm Stadium let Kirk hear it on the sideline and social media.“I had bad drops. But all of it was mental. I was thinking too much. I felt the external pressure.”
Ahead of his final season in Arizona, Kirk wiped the slate clean and captured motivation that saw him produce his best season with the Cardinals to the tune of 77 receptions, 982 yards and five touchdowns. Kirk's time isn't exactly viewed in golden light here in the desert - though he's far from hated within the Cardinals' fan base. It's clear the receiver wanted things to work desperately out here, though the opportunity to seize a life-changing contract couldn't be passed up.
